For romance, Le Méridien Nice is hit or miss.
A dependable big-format four-star whose real asset is the 10th-floor rooftop — La Terrasse bar, the Elaïo restaurant and a heated pool with one of the highest, widest Baie des Anges views on the Promenade. The rooms below are functional and a touch corporate; you're buying the position and that roof, not design.
